I had long wanted to go to collect seaglass from Seaham beaches. The glass that was collected was mostly very small pieces, too small to drill or use glue to attach bails. Not what I usually find and use. So I set out to source an affordable fillable locket to show off the glass. and this is one of the lockets made up. This locket has one of the two-tone pieces of glass, which is one of the reasons Seaham glass is so sought after.

Full description
Tiny pieces of seaglass have been collected from Seaham beach (Durham coast, UK) and used to fill this 3cm diameter silver coloured, clear faced locket. The locket is attached to a 22inch medium weight silver plated chain, making it an ideal length to show off the colours within the locket. At the top of the locket is a piece of two colour, blue/green-white (clear) glass, one of the quirks of Seaham glass - possibly created from when the molten glass entered the sea. The locket is hinged on one side and closes with a magnetic catch.
Seaham glass is known worldwide and provides a completely different type of glass to my usual beach. Much of the glass came from local bottle works, the largest being the Londonderry Bottleworks works that closed in the early 1921. At the end of the day's work, any molten glass remaining would be disposed off directly into the sea. The glass is mainly small pieces now, but is well rounded and hazed by the effects of the sea.
This item will be sent out by large letter post.
